The Toaster Waffle

So this morning it was like this:

Beck wanted a toaster waffle and we had one left. I toasted it for him. I asked him how he wanted it cut. "In half," he said. I sliced it and handed it over. He took one look and said, "But I want it whole now." And then he shoved it away. So I ate it. About an hour later he wanted that toaster waffle back, but of course by then it was gone. So he started wailing and moaning and rolling around on the floor. It can make a person crazy, this parenting job.

While President, Ronald Reagan had just finished a conversation with one of his adult children, when he turned to an aide and said "Insanity is inherited. You get it from your children."

So, you are in good company.
